same.

why the fuck are you coping with that old crap
Because it works, is faster than many other codes, and it is just not worth it to rewrite legacy code.

my least favorite "just a chill dude" advice is "plan to throw one away; you will, anyway"

hearing that from a professional C++ barf cope artist, about a Common Lisp hairball, is honestly insulting.

please believe me, I honestly have a lot of respect for people who maintain codebases older than their children.
